>>The error is related to the procesor speed. Over 300 MHz it appears very often and is a bug in FoxPro. The only way to stop it is to slow down somehow the list. MS suggest to disable de processor's cache memory! LOL!!

>If it is FoxPro DOS, then it should be something different. The patch from www.abri.com (and Microsoft patch) fixes FoxPro 2.6 for Windows problem which is "Divide by zero" or "Overflow". I run FoxPro DOS 2.5 and 2.6 apps on 1 GHz PCs without problems.

Nick, I'm sorry I am forced to argue.

The link I've posted is not the link to the patch for "Divide by zero". In fact, abri.com does not distribute it anymore.

The link is to a patch which uses a function executed when the list is populated. FoxPro is forced to do a dummy action like:
dummyvariable=1
FOR n = 1 TO 5
    dummyvar=dummyvar
ENDFOR
For this reason the list is populated at a reduced speed, which eliminates the error message. The error message is 'Insuficient memory' and appear every time the list is populated, not at the very beginning of the app.

And also, even the archive is named 'fpwlist', the mechanism implemented there will work in FPD, also, because is pure FoxPro code.

Thank you for your reply
